4THSOLUTION Workshops & coaching

for businesses & leaders

The 4th Industrial Revolution has ushered in change -and challenges- at a pace and scale that are unprecedented.

It is. turbulent characterised by extreme levels of uncertainty, volatility and complexity and has created an equally fundamental change in the skills set individuals, teams and businesses need to not only survive but thrive.

However, the gap between the speed, complexity & magnitude of change, and the ability of individuals and organisations to cope in this dynamic and volatile environment continues to widen.

Traditional coping strategies such as working longer, harder and faster simply fail in today's world.

Today's turbulent, fast-changing and uncertain world incessantly triggers our brains' automatic stress responses - the fight/flight/freeze reactions. Whereas in the distant past these instinctive somatic reactions were the safety mechanism that ensured the survival of our primal ancestors, in today's world, they not only fail to keep us safe but

attack our mental & physical health. manifest as anxiety, anger, stress, panic attacks, depression, etc.

they are a deeply self-sabotaging and dramatically outdated software that can wreak havoc with our lives. They undermine our mental clarity, and weaken our ability to find and implement the bold, creative, positive, and inspired visions & solutions we so urgently need.

It is high time for a new mindset and software update!

There has never been a more important time in our personal lives and on a collective and global level for us to be level-headed, critical & creative thinkers as well as positive, fearless, and proactive decision-makers.

THE MASTERY OF OUR OWN MIND

the mastery of our own mind

One viewer asked about mental health

not only should companies have the structure and resources in place for employees to get help, but they also need a culture in place that supports asking for help.

Unfortunately, when people find the courage to vocalize their mental struggles, it’s often met with resistance. We have to normalize mental health issues and prioritize wellness. This goes back to building courage and vulnerability. We have to encourage and support the necessary tough conversations.

and new change capabilities which increase their wellbeing, resilience, creativity and productivity in today's highly dynamic and often stressful work environments.

Individuals and teams learn to anticipate and embrace disruption and look for & discover the potential for innovation in unforeseen circumstances.

Software Update

Metacognition and mind mastery enable people to recognise, substantially reduce and avoid unconscious, negative, self-sabotaging and productivity-decreasing stress responses

Empathy, enthusiasm

(such as stress, anxiety, worry, anger, exhaustion, conflict) as well as change-resistant thoughts and habits* - and learn to replace these with new positive and resilience-building competencies and strategies.

Language Update

(*In the context of change processes these negative responses can amount to a loss of productivity of over 50%).

Consequently, the mental & emotional energy and the time previously absorbed by negative re-actions become available for the proactive development of positive solutions & creative new ideas.

Individuals & teams are enabled to think, plan & act at the peak of their abilities, beyond the limits of convention, past experiences, conditionings, habits and routines.

"Unlocking potential - the power that lies behind the mask. "Behind the mask of our professionalism lies the true power. More and more organisations understand that the more their people are invited to be themselves as much as possible, the more their power and full potential is unlocked, and the more liveliness, creativity, learning and energy flow back into the business. If we wear a mask it also holds back a lot of our energy and creativity. Then we get stuck in conflict, anxieties and corridor talk."

Frederic Laloux

We reach our goals much faster and much more interesting the more we know and trust ourselves.

the 4th Revolution and increasing automation return the focus to what is uniquely human and unique to each human being.

Today's existential challenges set the bar high for our willingness and ability to be positive, powerful and proactive decision-makers. The radical solutions we need cannot be found if we're

I just simply don't think we have time for self-doubt, and the radical solutions we need simply won't be found if we're anxious, stressed or even burying our heads in the sand.

This is why I believe

fact that is exacerbated by our brain's instinctive fight, flight or freeze stress responses which -instead of keeping us safe- attack and deplete our mental, emotional & physical health and thus undermine our ability to perform.

The combination of the shape-shifting nature of the external environment, as well as change resistance and the lack of adequate new change capabilities, is leading to unprecedented levels of depression, burnout, trauma, and substantially decreased effectiveness and dramatic financial losses - with the annual cost of poor mental health for employers in the UK alone being an estimated £42-45 bn.

4thSolution Workshops address exactly this gap.
